  This is a significant variation on the game of dominoes but with square single tiles; the number of dots remain one to six. The first player takes 3 pieces and places them on the board to make a total of 10, 11, or 12 in a line. Each player then takes 2 pieces and adds them in turn to the pieces already played to make further 10s 11s or 12s. The winner is the player who scores the maximum number of points after all 121 pieces are played.
